More news from the NBA
If you don’t like the NBA, just keep on moving.
NBA team owners voted overwhelmingly in favor of allowing the Seattle Supersonics to move out of Seattle and into a market that is more than a million people smaller than Seattle. It is ridiculous.
The great news is two of my favorite NBA executives were the ones who voted against the deal.
Mark Cuban, the famous owner of the Dallas Mavericks and Paul Allen, the slightly less vocal owner of the Portland Trail Blazers. That’s it, everyone else voted for the move.
Let me just say that I am happy that Allen is the owner of MY basketball team today. If the owner of your home team voted to allow a deal like this, I wonder what their intentions could be? Maybe they want the flexibility to move their team when the city or state won’t pay 500 million for a new arena (after a 74 million dollar renovation 13 years ago).
